Not like other bands do
Where I can get lost in the music
They had a voice of their own
I'll grant them that much
I mainly just listen to classical. Metal while drinking or working out
Unless it's something special
Then I'll listen to it while doing math
I think what bugs me about metal is it does not have enough of an escapist peter pan complex vibe
@spaceplacenta it's a good riff
song is kind of just there
peter pan complex?
metal is escapist almost by definition
@Deleted User 57835c2c MUCH OF IT DOES, BUT IN A TOLKIEN/LOVECRAFT/NIETZSCHE KIND OF WAY
yeah
BUT THAT WAS THE GOAL OF BURZUM AS YOU RECALL
TO STIMULATE THE FANTASY OF MORTALS
IT IS NOT ESCAPIST LIKE THE CRYSTAL METHOD
OR ENYA
all metal has this goal implicitly
it's black magic
OR EVEN BRIAN ENO
YES
PETER PAN
HMM
PARTS OF REM ARE LIKE THAT
AND DANZIG
@Deleted User 57835c2c I don't think you appreciate metal at the perception level
I feel like the fantasy of metal is portrayed in a way that makes it so gritty it is not satisfying to me as fantasy
how to listen to music i.e.
CHUCK IT ALL AND GET LOST IN A WORLD OF MYSTERY
you can't say that to anyone without them taking offense
GRITTY
so I apologise for that
MORE PUNK
GRINDCORE ALWAYS RUINS THE ILLUSION
to some degree you have to absorb the melodic ethics of metal
WITH A FEW GREAT EXCEPTIONS
punk is unsatisfying for the same reason however they do a good job making me identify with the feeling of being a powerless individual in an awful world
TERRORIZER WRITE ABOUT ZOMBIES
AND THE MUSIC HAS THAT FEEL
